Default jdm B18C1 wiring help

So I've done all my homework on the transplant into my dx hb but, I can't find much info on wiring up the engine. Can anyone tell me or give some web sites.
Again I will be putting a 94-96 jdm B18C1 into a 93 dx hb

Remember to use the US harness too.

ok I've done some more investigating into this swap and read that the only plug that won't directly fit from USDM to JDM is the ecu plug because its backwards. Is this right.

umm... if the motor doesnt have a usdm harness, you need to use your stock usdm engine harness, and run the 4 additional wires

u dont need to mess with any of the wiring on the car itself, bsides adding the 4 wires. the usdm ecu plugs are the same as jdm, even the pin layouts are the same

so why does it take people only 2 hours to put the engine in and 8 hours to wire it up?
